K So I've never actually played Ubers until today I really wanted to try it out. I honestly have no idea where to start so I threw together a few Pokemon that I really liked from the tier that sounded good together. I won a few matches with it on the smogon ladder but it was really low elo so I'm not putting anything into it.
Here is my team:
Kyogre @ Blue Orb
Ability: Drizzle
EVs: 4 HP / 252 SpA / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Origin Pulse
- Ice Beam
- Thunder
- Calm Mind
Typical Calm Mind sweeper set for Primal Kyogre. I have heard that moving the EVs from speed to HP might be more effective? I'd like some advice there because I was a little torn here on what to do. Would 248 HP/252 Sp. Attack/4 Spe be better?
Dialga @ Leftovers
Ability: Pressure
EVs: 252 HP / 4 Atk / 252 Def
Relaxed Nature
- Stealth Rock
- Dragon Tail
- Thunder Wave
- Flash Cannon
My rocks setter, physically bulky, can force switches with Dragon Tail, can cripple with t-wave, and Flash Cannon is just for some decent hitting STAB on fairies.
Lugia @ Leftovers
Ability: Multiscale
EVs: 252 HP / 4 SpA / 252 Spe
Timid Nature
- Toxic
- Roost
- Whirlwind
- Ice Beam
Mainly added Lugia for a little bit of stall. The set is pretty basic, crippling with toxic, roosting off damage, forcing out boosted mons or threats with Whirlwind, and Ice Beam for Shaymin/Mega Mence.
Salamence @ Salamencite
Ability: Intimidate
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Jolly Nature
- Return
- Outrage
- Dragon Dance
- Earthquake
I needed a good physical sweeper and Mega Mence just seemed fun to use. Hits most things pretty hard. Just your typical DD set.
Chansey (F) @ Eviolite
Ability: Natural Cure
EVs: 248 HP / 252 Def / 8 SpA
Bold Nature
- Aromatherapy
- Soft-Boiled
- Thunder Wave
- Ice Beam
Special wall/healer. I had Seismic Toss but changed it out for Ice Beam so I'm not completely ineffective vs Ghost Pokemon.
Xerneas @ Power Herb
Ability: Fairy Aura
EVs: 252 SpA / 4 SpD / 252 Spe
Modest Nature
- Geomancy
- Moonblast
- Thunder
- Focus Blast
Using Geoxern as my final Pokemon.

I'd really like some constructive advice as I honestly have no clue about Ubers(I normally only battle LC/NU/sometimes OU). I know my team lacks things such as a defogger/spinblocker. I wasn't sure how effective those were anyways. I'm all up for changing out any members of this team for anything that could fit in better over something else. As I said, I have won a few matches with this, but I also lost a few. I feel like my team could use another physical sweeper because I have nothing if Mence goes down. Thanks for the advice!
Here is my team:
